There is a lady who has 2 children at my DS school. I dont know her well, but she seems nice enough (hello as you pass on the school run etc). I think she is a single mum (never seen dad and know someone who knows her) just adding that so not drip feeding. Her DS is a really sweet little boy, but the last few times Ive seen him his school trousers are really badly ripped... They are ripped and in tatters at the back of the trouser at the bottom for about 3 inches and torn on the knees as well. The person I know who knows of her, says their impression is that she is quite hard up, and on her own.
Thing is, I have two pairs of school trousers that I bought on ebay second hand, that my son cant wear. He is really skinny at the waist and has to have the ones that are adjustable. The ones I bought arent adjustable so just fall off him without a belt.
So, my question is, AIBU to give these trousers to this other mum? If I knew her well enough I would bring it up in conversation "didn't fit mine, your S is same height , do you want them ?" kind of way. But I dont.... Im worried it might be perceived as pity or charity which she might be offended by?
